Happy Wednesday. I didn't know what to expect when I stepped on the scale this am as I have been sick since last Friday. I have been eating bad things and not working out since last Thurs. I am down 3 for a total of 10.6 for month one. Feeling motivated and like I can actually do this !

I'm down .8 lbs for the week.
Budgeting
So far so good. I think it is definitely making a difference because I am making myself fix my lunches more. Even though I was doing Planet Smoothie more often then junk Fast Food that wasn't any cheaper. Making my own definitely saves money overall. Although I really do need to look at what I'm spending on smoothie ingredients so I can figure out what the real difference is.

Hi All! Not so good this week. Just broke even. Unfortunately, my bad knee has gone bad and I'm walking with a cane! Argh!! It's so slow and awkward. Hopefully things will get better when I get used to it. :-S

I wasn't real bad this week, but I was not great either. I got into the Ritz crackers one night because I felt like I was starving. Luckily, I stayed the same this week.
I got the results of my stress test yesterday and they were good. Apparently, the exercising everyday is helping my heart so I feel good about that. I really need to stay on this diet. Sometimes I feel so deprived. Life without my favorite foods (sugar, pasta, etc.) seems really dull and boring. I miss simple bread and butter the most. Okay, Kathy, shut up now (this is me telling myself to think of something else).
See you all next week. I am going to really try hard to stay on task. Positive thoughts to all.

Miraculously, I remembered to weigh in this morning and it looks like I am down 1 lb - hard to be sure on my ancient analog scale... I've been very good this past week - recording every little bit into Lose It and coming in under calorie budget every day. I also managed to get into the gym 6 out of 7 days. Plus dancing to QAL vids  |

Friday Hip Exercise - the BridgeWhenever you are laying on your back and semi-resting between other exercises throw the bridge in there. It tucks your tush in and helps align everything. You can do sets or you can hold one for longer. B ring your heels closer to you in order to get a higher arch.To demonstrate here is Adam showing off and doing it on an uneven surface. It's much easier on your yoga mat.

LOL, seems like KQ would make a great Pilates workout video.

Good Morning !!!!!! I was only down a half pound today - but I am pretty sure it's because I have been down with the flu for 10 days - some days I eat and some days I don't so I am sure my system is all over the place. Hope everyone is doing well !!!!

Shoot it's Wednesday - so much for my being speedy. I don't think any change for me, but I'm working on switching up some bad habits.
csimms, dang! Hope the worst is over for you and you are soon back up to speed.

Missed check-in last week, but hadn't been very good either. Had a family situation that necessitated a last minute trip out of town for several days, and the eating plan went right out the window. Lots of rain here too lately so missed a number of walks. The result of all that is that I've gained 3 lbs. in the last 2 weeks. Ugh! Finding it more of a struggle this time than when I lost the 50 lbs. before, and with a birthday weekend coming up, don't anticipate a big loss next week either, but I am trying! Have to get my mindset back there!
See you all next week!
